Captain Salt in Oz (Version 2)
Ruth Plumly Thompson
Read by Phil Chenevert
A voyage on the famous Nonestic Ocean! What could be more thrilling than that? We—many of us—have taken trips on the prosaic Atlantic or even Pacific, but have we found a SEA FOREST with flying fish and swimming birds? Have we been pursued by a real SEA SERPENT, or had our ship transfixed by the immense ivory tusk of a NARWHAL? Have we come upon the glittering island of PEAKENSPIRE, or made friends with a charming talking hippopotamus?
Yet all these things and more befall Captain Salt, one time Pirate and now Royal Explorer of Oz, and his merry crew. They come back with their hold bursting with unique and fascinating specimens, with their chart crowded with new islands, claimed for Ozma, and drawn so realistically by the delightful little boy Tandy, Cabin Boy and Artist of the Expedition.

Reviews
silly book with a phenomenal reader
A LibriVox Listener
This is a fun book. The reader is what makes the story worth listening to, along with it just being silly enough for pleasure, but not stupidly silly.

I like the adventure of this book and I also think it’s great how the book is still an oz book.
